Photos from the Maze Runner scoring sessions.
“As the film starts off the music is very ambient, it’s very unsure of itself, there’s not really an established theme, the score is trying to figure out its place in this world just as our character is. As the film progresses and as Thomas learns of this greater world that he’s part of and more and more technology is introduced to the film and the story starts to take shape, so does our score.” -John
